The purpose of this amendment is to provide additional information in response to questions which have been submitted. Q: What will this be used for? A: The salt is used for the water softener system which services the entire Battle Creek VA Medical Center. Q: Does it specifically need to be white water ? Could you provide the salt specifications? A: The bill of lading for the salt we currently receive says Granulated Industrial YPS Bulk NSF 60 . It looks like table salt. Q: Do you want salt with or without YPS (anti-caking agent)? A: The salt must have YPS. Q: The common couple size for pneumatic deliveries here is 4 inches, while 4.5 inches sounds like an outside diameter measurement. A: We have a 4-inch cam lock connection to the silo. Q: What type of truck would you need to have deliveries in? Assume a pneumatic trailer but want to verify. A: When salt is delivered the semi-truck looks like a tanker vessel and can offload the salt with air pressure from the truck through 4-inch hoses to our salt silo. Some have different compartments with looks of hoppers on the bottom of the tanker trailer. Q: Would it be possible to schedule a site visit?
